Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9729238A1] A suspension of uncooked starch and water is applied to web forming on the wire (12) of a paper machine. The suspension at a consistency of 2-10 % is applied to the surface of the web as a free falling curtain (30) from the downwardly opening extrusion slot of a coater die (25). The die lips are chilled to produce sweating by moisture condensation to prevent build-up of coating particles on the die lips. The feed-through passage of the die is tapered in cross section between inlet and outlet to maintain turbulent flow condition which maintains the particulate material of the coating in suspension.
